But today, as we head towards its probable end, along with the rise of the second wave, let's go through how the virus spread; how it impacts our today, and what we can expect in the coming year.

Before we could stop and think for a moment, a global pandemic takes over the world.

Santizers are placed at all public places like Hotels, Religious places, and Businesses.

The public has been advised to follow all directed SOPs, and all the expense of testing and cures is taken care of by the government of the UAE.

We've managed to keep the number of cases at one of the lowest counts, globally.

The first of course will be to be a preventive measure against the corona virus.But also secondly, there will be a new form of vaccines.

That's a major decision, which would change the factors involved later on.Today, at MBT we'll go through the reasons why you should go for Artificial Turfs.

An artificial turf is a grass like surface, made of synthetic fibers.

Synthetic turf allows communities to conserve that water, which is particularly critical during times of drought.- Saves on MaintenanceSynthetic turf eliminates the use of potentially harmful pesticides and fertilizers while significantly decreasing maintenance costs.- Looks Just as GoodWe can’t ignore the aesthetic value of synthetic turf.

A grass field simply cannot remain lush and resilient if it is used more than three to four days a week, or in the rain, or during the six months of the year when grass doesn’t grow – otherwise the surface will become an unsafe, rock-hard, dirt field.

- HousesGarden upkeep can be a major problem.

It can be used safely by your children and pets.

At homes, these can accomdate everyone in the family.

But first let's discuss which type you should consider.When talking about wardrobes, two types immediately come to mind:- Walk in Wardrobes- Built in WardrobesBoth of these have their ups and downs.

But let's list down the factors you should put into consideration.Built in Wardrobe vs Walk in WardrobeLet's first consider Built in Wardrobes:- Built in Wardrobes are more compact and can be mounted against a single wall- Built in Wardrobes generally occupy less space- Built in Wardrobes cost considerably less- Built in Wardrobes offer less storage space in comparison- Suitable for medium to small sized roomsAnd as for Walk in Wardrobes:- Walk in Wardrobes offer a private changing space- Walk in Wardrobes have more storage space- Walk in Wardrobes require approximately three times more space than Built in Wardrobes- Walk in Wardrobes cost significantly higher in comparison- Suitable for medium to large sized roomsThese are just some of the points to consider, before deciding which one to go for.

Hence, we're going to talk about those today.

Elegant AppearanceUnlike their Walk in counterpart, Built in Wardrobes are a part of the rooms they're made in.

And also leads us to our next pointEasy MaintenanceThese are considerably easy to maintain.

Life gives us many opportunities to showcase our ideas.

The shape of the house, the materials used, the interior and exterior design themes; it all adds up to show people your interests and dislikes.One of the most important parts of finalizing a house, is the finishing of walls.

It’s not an easy task to decide what you’re going for, and why.

Some times, you’d lean on to one thing.

Comparatively, paint gets damaged over a lesser period of time.

ConclusionGo for Paint if you want:- A cheap solution- Solid color walls- Resilience in high humidity areas Go for Wallpaper if you want:- A longer lasting solution- Textures, or custom designs on your walls- Durability in general uses What do we recommend?Following are some suggestions, that you can consider:- Use a combination of both.- Use paint for bathrooms and kitchen, wallpaper for the other rooms.- Go for the trend, and apply wallpaper on one wall, and paint the other three.- If you go for a custom design wallpaper, make sure it sits well with the theme of the room.But of course, at the end of the day, these are just suggestions.

1 - Ease of Cleaning and MaintenanceFirstly, they're great for cleanliness, and maintenace.

Commercial floor mats are incredibly effective in controlling the accumulation of dirt, moisture, and other debris.

This helps businesses make a positive first impression with their guests, conveying that ideals of cleanliness, meticulousness, and professionalism are top priorities.

Entrance mats can be a long-lasting and low-maintenance way of dealing with the upkeep of your building’s interior.It will also mean that your flooring needs replacing less often which will give you more funds in your maintenance budget for other jobs or projects.2 - Reduced Accidental Slips and FallsSecondly, they're quite beneficial for worker safety.

Slips and trips are common at the best of times, but when shoes are wet, or lack grip, people are even more likely to have an accident when they enter a commercial building, particularly if it has a smooth and shiny floor.

most commercial entrance floor mats bear the logo of the company on their topsides.

Carpets are cushioned surfaces, that cover floors.

Their use is a global age old tradition.

They're a modern concept, and offer a unique new style to carpeting.

They come in various shapes and sizes, like squares and rectangles.

Growing in popularity, as the days go by.

This helps save a lot of effort, extra resources, along with considerable costs and time.Waste EvasionYou can easily fit carpet tiles where you need.

In modern times, cladding is used to create thermal insulation, and to protect against unfavorable weather conditions.

It always gives them a sleek and contemporary look.

The Benefits of Wall CladdingThe exterior part of a structure, is the most exposed and vulnerable area it has.

There are four main ways, that wall cladding helps:- Weather Resistance and Protection- Insulation From Heat and Sound- Easy Maintenance- Design Aesthetic Let's breifly go through each one of these below:Weather Resistance and ProtectionOne primary advantage that you get, is weather resistance.

Through the insulation layer, we aim to prevent external sounds from entering residences.

It'll look good as new.Design AestheticFinally, there is of course that appeal.

There are many factors you have to consider, before finalizing an option.

This is quite a common query among consumers.

Today’s we’re going to discuss this exact issue.

Whereas, the deck flooring would be focused on water resistance.

What is CarpetingCarpets are Woolen or Synthetic-fiber Textile floors.

Their maintenance isn’t high, which makes them a desirable option for consumers.

But of course, there are more budget-friendly options out there.

The most confusing choice among them all, is whether to go for Vinyl or for Laminate.

Luxury Vinyl is made of several layers of resilient polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

But some laminate variants do come with water-resistance.

Pros and Cons of VinylNow lets's first discuss the pros and cons of Vinyl flooring:ProsVinyl is quite easy to install.

They're considerably cheaper than hardwood, and even vinyl.

Materials like steel, plastic, and PVC have certainly left their mark in the industry.

But this one material, just doesn't go out of fashion.

Of course there are, and always will be, alternatives.

The same can not be said about synthetic materials.- Eco-FriendlinessOne good thing about wood, is that it's reusable.

This way a majority of the trees and forests are saved, while also fulfulling the needs of the industry.

It's considered a premium material, due to its beauty and maginificence.

Finally, we aim to create ease for your decision, based on your needs.

Epoxy flooring is also known, for it's resistance to impact and ability to handle strain.

PU FlooringPolyutherane is a polymer, as the name suggests.

Today at MBT, we're going to compare them and see which one is better for which situation.Points for PUPU floors are better suited for scratch and abrasion resistancePU floors can handle higher levels of hot and cold temperaturesPU floors offer better resistance to a variety of chemicals (e.g.

fruit acids)PU floors can be more durable in certain settings, due to their flexibilityPU floors cure fasterPU floors last longerPoints for EpoxyEpoxy floors generally costs lesserEpoxy floors are tougher, and more durable for heavy equipment handlingEpoxy is also resistant to various chemicals - better than PU in some cases (like battery acids)Epoxy is better for moist or humid areasEpoxy is easier to apply, and can be applied by inexperienced people as well ConclusionSo which one should you pick for your facility?

We can't generalize them for all sorts of a specific environment.However, there is a common trend.

These have less to do with protection, and more to do with design.

These profiles do however, help avoid or lessen injuries to young ones.

Some examples of these are:Half Bull Nose Profiles are Curved at the top edge, and straight at the bottomFull Bull Nose Profiles are Curved both at the top and bottom edges.Eased Edge Profile, is straight but slightly rounded at the top and bottom edges.

Two kinds of Floor Trims can be:Round edge trimsSquare edge trims Ceramic Edge Profiles make Ceramic tiles look even better.

They stand out or highlight another feature within the space, by rehashing a finish or material.

Around the globe, you’ll find many trustworthy and reliable service providers.

They look ugly, and furthermore their condition gets worse over time.

We'll get to why you should consider HDPE, but first let's discuss what HDPE is.

Our focus today, will be on how well it does for walls.But we should let you know, that this material is also used in construction for making food grade pipes.

Which is... Why Should You Use HDPE for Walls?That's a good question.

Isn't it bad for the environment?

This makes it an eco-friendly material, that can be resued.Transportation is easy.

The name developed, because it often protudes from the edge.

They come in a number of shapes and designs.

In turn, the chances of injuries and accidents are also reduced.

This is a major benefit for places that frequent heavy traffic, or where children may be present.- Adds Longevity to StaircasesThis is also useful for the protection of stair treads.

But this adds a small detail at the end of each step, and makes it clearly visible for all.

Following are some of the options you can go for:PVCAluminumWoodRubberBrassBronze Shape of NosingIf you do opt for nosing, you'll also think about it's shape.

An expansion joint or movement joint is an assembly designed to hold parts together while safely absorbing temperature-induced expansion and contraction of building materials, and vibration, or to allow movement due to ground settlement or seismic activity.

Expansion joints are introduced to accommodate building movements caused by shrinkage, creep, or temperature changes.They are often one-way joints, that is, they are primarily intended to accommodate movements in the direction perpendicular to the joint.Expansion joints are also commonly placed at some regular interval of length based on the expected rate of shrinkage or temperature movement expected to occur over the building length.

Seismic joints, on the other hand, must accommodate movement in both orthogonal directions simultaneously and their spacing is not typically affected by building length or size.

Backing Rods occupy any and all spatial voids.

That final joint is strong and entirely weatherproof.Control joints are typically used in concrete masonry to reduce the occurrence of shrinkage-related cracking.

A control joint is a continuous vertical joint filled with mortar, but with a bond breaker on one side so that tensile stress cannot develop across the joint.If control joints are not provided, a concrete masonry wall may crack as it shrinks over time.
